Audit re-verification, 2026-09-02. All four organization URLs were re-requested by the independent auditor. Beat (HTTP 200), ANAD (200) and F.E.A.S.T. (200) resolved. The Australian Government directory URL originally recorded for EDFA did not respond within 40 seconds on two attempts, so the organization's own site — which resolved cleanly — is now the primary verified source for that row. This is a link-availability observation, not a finding about the organization.

Scope notes

All four organizations address multiple eating disorders, not AN alone. Availability, hours, eligibility and geographic reach can change; the linked page is authoritative. Peer support and helplines do not replace emergency or specialist medical care. No private participant story was collected.
